So after eating 90% clean for the last 4 months, I ate a McDs Double QP...

[Palpatine Q]

I certainly don't think McDonald's is the best burger, but I really think it speaks volumes to how people perceive "food".

Only in this country to we think food is "bad".

To be serious for a moment.

I think food is bad when it's low quality garbage meat that is mostly fat and preservatives.  it's like eating a hot dog. just crap.

I'd rather spend 7.50 for a juicy sirloin burger that is hand made and cooked to order...for as often as I'll eat a burger and fries.

Unless you are drugged to the max a cheat day is a bullshit term used by weak minds.  Once I get into a fat burning mode the last thing I want is a cheat day.  If people need the cheat day then they are doing something wrong with their diet.

This!

There are no preservatives in Mcdonalds beef and it has a fat ratio of 20 percent to 80 lean.  The actual quality is also high.

have a party brother.

[Mawse]

I wouldn't eat that just because it's a low quality, salty lump of gristle.

nothing wrong with a burger from somewhere good, if it fits your macros. I'd rather get chicken strips as there's more protein and less fat and they tast fckin awesome from carls jnr.

Sarcasm I hope

[POB]

Should of gone to in and out burger

[The True Adonis]

Nope.

Its a myth that there are any preservatives in Mcdonalds beef.  

[The True Adonis]

The quality control of McDonalds' food is very high as is the accuracy of its nutritional content. McDonalds can't afford to get it wrong. It's a complete crap shoot at your local burger place.

This is 100 percent accurate.

[Palpatine Q]

Nope.

how about the cheese and the bun..which account for half of the calories  

[BodyMachine]

Like Wes said, when u eat clean for a while and then eat fast food, it taste like shit. Countless times I was craving a big mac, finally had one and it taste like salt, grease, and a sponge (bun). Can't believe how I used to love that shit years ago. And TA it's not just the patty, the sauces they use and gobs of mayo

What is the binding ingredient used in making the beef patties?

We don’t use any binding ingredients. Our burger patties are made from 100% pure beef, with no binders or fillers.


Do you add fat to cook your burger patties?

Our burger patties are just 100% pure beef. Nothing is added – no binders or fillers. The restaurants use a double-sided grill called a “clamshell” to grill the patties, and no extra fat is added.

Same kind of Cheese and Bread you buy in the store.  The "7.50" burger bun and cheese that you love so much, are the same ingredients.

Their burgers DO NOT come with Mayo unless you ask for it.  Hope this helps.  Also, there is NO MAYO on a Big Mac or quarter pounder.  Hope this helps x2.

They opened a company called "100% beef" prob how they can legally say that

maybe the kind you buy..not me.

and not even close...do some research that you are famous for

Come on Groink, you are smart enough to know that your favorite "local burger" place does not have the facilities to make their own cheese.  They have a truck that comes in that brings them American Cheese and others by bulk.  The same with their bread.

well, I dont know what it is in their burgers that make me feel like shit, but there is something... and it appears im not alone in that.

BULLSHIT!

If you go to any Deli counter of any Supermarket or if you go to just strictly a Deli that sells Meat and Cheese, the ingredients for American Cheese will be virtually the same.

Do you need me to post how American Cheese is made?  I will if you want me to.

[bigmc]

Why are u trying to be smart. U know damn well that I said sauces and a big mac has sauce. So if groink is wasting 7.50 and should just eat mcd since it's the same, why do u bother making a buger at home over eating mcd? Ur always telling us how the quality of ur food is fabulous, isn't it the same?

[The True Adonis]

Its just your brain at work.  Nothing else.  Feel free to lab test their meat.  Its not like they are hiding anything.

I have seen it and beaten it to death with my logical hammer as to why its pure shit.  Please do a search.

McDonalds only recently started using "meat" that didn't contain "pink slime"

http://www.businessinsider.com/mcdonalds-is-changing-its-burger-recipe-to-take-the-pink-slime-out-of-its-meat-2012-1

The quality is still horrendous and they still have a ton of sodium so if you're eating clean or even a normal diet (i.e you prepare you own food) and then you eat almost ANY fast food you will notice the overwhelming amount of sodium

http://nutrition.mcdonalds.com/getnutrition/nutritionfacts.pdf

A friend talked me into eating at BK about 4 years ago and I took one bite and spit it out.   All I could taste was the salt

As has been mentioned on this thread there are many places (local and national chains) that use higher quality ingredients than BK, McD, and of course you can make great burgers at home where you can control the quality of all ingredients
